A pomegranate and a handful of figs are strewn horizontally across this small oblong canvas. Renoir painted the fruits in rich and juicy strokes of red, purple, and green. Two of the figs are ripe to the point of bursting, almost inviting the viewer to pluck them out of the painting. They speak to the aged painter's desire to offer sensual pleasure through his paintings.
